Do you have an idea how to work around this?

Code:
local ksf = CreateFrame("Frame")
ksf:SetFrameStrata("DIALOG")
ksf:EnableKeyboard()
ksf:SetPropagateKeyboardInput(true)
ksf:SetScript("OnKeyDown", function(key)
    print(key)
end)
This works only when the editbox does not have focus.
Great idea, I don't play Overwatch enough to realize it had that functionality.
